No. 3: Florida State
By Paul Myerberg // Aug 30, 2012
Miami is no longer a threat. Florida's lack of offensive punch has left the Gators lagging behind. Nowadays, Florida State's title quest runs through two A.C.C. opponents: Clemson in the Atlantic, Virginia Tech in the Coastal. For every team with title aspirations, the first step towards greatness comes during conference play; the Seminoles must first tackle the Tigers and Hokies before turning their sights towards the rest of college football's landscape. But with this the year that F.S.U. puts it all together under Jimbo Fisher, the Seminoles can begin readjusting their line of vision – the Seminoles can think bigger, beyond the boundaries of the A.C.C., and begin measuring themselves against the truly elite: Alabama, Oregon, L.S.U., U.S.C., Georgia, Oklahoma and the rest. How does F.S.U. measure up? The talent is there. The coaching is there. The confidence is there. The schedule is certainly there. What's this team's ceiling? Try Sun Life Stadium – on Jan. 7, 2013.

Last year's prediction
I'm talking a jump from 10-4 to 14-0, though there's that looming date with Oklahoma growing closer and closer in the distance. What needs to go right in order for F.S.U. to run the table? Not all that much, but the small factors that must go this team's way is what provides the slight distance between the Seminoles and Alabama, Boise State and the Sooners, the three best teams in the country, in my mind. I think the Seminoles drop one game in the regular season — and no, I'm not automatically saying that loss will be Oklahoma. This outstanding defensive line could chew up and spit out the O.U. offensive front, mind you. But I think we'll see one slip-up for a relatively young team, albeit one with solid experience.
2011 recap
In a nutshell Perhaps not the finish Florida State imagined in August, but the Seminoles did weather several storms in winning at least nine games for the second straight season — something the program hadn't achieved since 2003-4. Perhaps no other team in college football was so drastically stymied by injuries, and not just at quarterback, where E.J. Manuel again struggled staying on the field, but also along the back end of the defense and the offensive line. By the time the Seminoles took the field against Notre Dame in late December, the offensive line was manned by four true freshmen. One, 17-year-old right tackle Bobby Hart, should have been in high school. Yet the Seminoles persevered, perhaps coming with one or two breaks of an 11-win regular season.
High point Another sweep of the Sunshine State. Not that either win was pretty, mind you. On Nov. 12, F.S.U. overcame a late Miami (Fla.) charge and its own offensive incompetence in a 23-19 home win. In the regular season finale, the Seminoles gained only 95 yards of total offense in a 21-7 win over Florida in Gainesville.
Low point The games that got away. After tying Oklahoma at 13-13, the Seminoles allowed 10 unanswered points in the fourth quarter for its first loss of the season. That was followed by a 35-30 loss at Clemson, which was followed by a 35-30 loss at Wake Forest. A 14-13 loss to Virginia in November literally brought Jimbo Fisher to his knees.
Tidbit Florida State enters 2012 having held its last eight opponents to 19 points or less: Duke, Maryland, N.C. State, Boston College, Miami (Fla.), Virginia, Florida and Notre Dame. This is the longest streak in the A.C.C. since the Hurricanes' nine-game stretch in 2005. To snap Miami's mark – putting another notch in their belt at Miami's expense, I should add – the Seminoles merely need to slow down Murray State and Savannah State to open the season.
Tidbit (kicking edition) Senior kicker Dustin Hopkins won't set the F.B.S. record consecutive extra-points made, unless F.S.U. puts together the greatest offense in football history. Entering his senior season, Hopkins has made 130 straight extra-points; the record, 233 straight, is held by former Texas Tech kicker Alex Trlica. What lies in Hopkins' path is the A.C.C. record, however: that's 160 straight, by former Georgia Tech kicker Luke Manget.
Tidbit (defense edition) The Seminoles have allowed 278.8 yards per game and 4.2 yards per play in the team's 19 wins over the last two seasons. In contrast, F.S.U. has allowed 403.7 yards per game and 5.5 yards per play in its eight losses since the start of the 2010 season.

Jimbo Fisher (Salem College '89), 19-8 after two seasons at the head of one of college football's premier programs. Fisher has been a part of the F.S.U. staff since 2007, when he was hired by Bobby Bowden to run the Seminoles' sputtering offense. A year later, Fisher was tabbed as the head-coach-in-waiting when Bowden opted to retire. For all the struggles F.S.U. went through from 2007-9, it's difficult to place any blame upon Fisher's offense. The Seminoles averaged nearly 32.0 points per game from 2008-9 – the 434 points scored in 2008 was the program's most since 2000 – while the defense set new program lows in 2009. It's because of the success of his offense that Fisher was able to escape Florida State's recent downturn unscathed, with his reputation intact and the promise surrounding this new era at a fever pitch. In some ways, though few coaches would embrace the opportunity to replace a legend like Bowden, his predecessor's struggles over the last decade allowed Fisher a bit of leeway as he adjusted to his new position. But don't be confused: this is Florida State, and winning means everything. Fisher is accustomed to serving under the limelight, both as offensive coordinator at F.S.U. and in his service in the same capacity at L.S.U. (2000-6). The Tigers went 70-20 over Fisher's seven-year period as coordinator, reaching seven bowl games, winning a pair of SEC championships (2001, 2003) and the 2003 national championship. His F.B.S. experience includes a season as the quarterbacks coach at Cincinnati (1999) and six seasons as the quarterbacks coach at Auburn (1993-98). At Auburn, Fisher coached under Terry Bowden and alongside Tommy Bowden, then the offensive coordinator.
Offensive line to watch
The only position grouping where F.S.U. doesn't rank among the top two in the A.C.C. – and the Seminoles are no lower than second elsewhere, and a very distinct first more often than not – is the offensive line, where Rick Trickett's search for the best starting five might continue into the early stages of this coming season. Before getting to personnel, three reasons why F.S.U.'s front is ready to take a step forward: one, this is obviously a drastically more experienced group, even if the Seminoles lost a trio of contributors in Andrew Datko, Zebrie Sanders and David Spurlock; two, this is far and away the program's biggest line in years; and three, I see subtly improved depth across the board, especially along the interior. The line will be better – but just how much better, and what sort of improvement does F.S.U. need to see up front to win a national championship?
The first answer: quite a bit better, for the reasons listed above. The second answer: F.S.U. would need to not only find a starting five and at least three competent reserves, but would also need to stick with the same group, not to mention avoid injuries. There were simply far too many moving pieces last fall, in large part due to injuries, for this offensive front to find any rhythm or momentum over the course of the year. The end result was the four-freshmen lineup F.S.U. trotted out against Notre Dame; while the rookies acquitted themselves as well as could be expected, that's obviously not an optimal scenario.
What's been striking to me is that Fisher and Trickett clearly started from scratch when evaluating this line heading into 2012. Take left tackle, for instance, where F.S.U. is going to open the year with sophomore Cameron Erving, a converted defensive tackle who has taken well to the role since swapping sides earlier this offseason. Two of the four Champs Sports Bowl freshmen will retain their starting roles: Josue Matias at left guard and Tre' Jackson at right guard. The line will take its cue from junior center Bryan Stork, the most seasoned returning contributor; while still an option outside, Stork's experience could be a huge asset between the two sophomores. While junior Menelik Watson is listed as the starter at right tackle, it's safe to say that he and senior Daniel Glauser are co-starters – both are going to play until one puts a stranglehold on the top spot.
So what do I see up front? I see a line that will get better as the year wears on, should everyone remain healthy. I see very good interior depth in senior Jacob Fahrenkrug and sophomores Bobby Hart, Austin Barron and Sterling Lovelady. I see question marks outside, with a converted defender on the blind side and a still-unsettled competition on the right. I see a line that will do a tremendously better job running between the gaps from left to right guard. I see a line that remains somewhat questionable in pass protection, due to the issues at tackle. What else? Consider: F.S.U. opens with Murray State and Savannah State. This line needs to slide into the season without being overly tested. In addition, I only see two teams with the sort of fronts that could potentially take advantage of F.S.U.'s lingering concerns over protection: Virginia Tech and Florida.
There's no sugarcoating this fact: F.S.U.'s ability to win the national title hinges entirely – 100 percent, every single iota – on the line's ability to protect the quarterback. You've heard about E.J. Manuel's inability to stay healthy; well, one way to keep the senior healthy is to keep him clean. With a healthy Manuel and a strong interior running game, Fisher's offense is ready to take off. This offense goes only as far as the line takes it; Florida State goes only as far as the offense takes it. If all goes according to plan, Trickett has cemented a starting five by Wake Forest, the line stays healthy all season and the two starting tackles help F.S.U. maintain a comfortable pocket.
Players to watch
E.J. Manuel is ready to make a run for the Heisman. This is my opinion, and it's an opinion based on the idea that Manuel, while a senior, is only just now prepared to take the mammoth-sized step forward that all quarterbacks take once they accumulate ample experience. Consider: Manuel was thrown to the wolves as a freshman in 2009, when he was totally unprepared for a starting role; he was much improved in 2010, when he made 93 attempts as Christian Ponder's backup; and was often great last fall, especially after the loss to Wake Forest. You've seen steady and clear progression over the last three seasons, but what you have not seen is Manuel getting prolonged snaps in the starting lineup. Even with his experience in 2009 and 2010, Manuel should be considered a second-year starter.
The light is about to turn on. While the numbers won't necessarily show this fact – just in his own league, Tajh Boyd and Mike Glennon will have loftier totals – Manuel's physical gifts rank him very much among the elite class of quarterbacks in college football. Most of all, he's a good fit for what F.S.U. wants to do on offense: Manuel is not only supremely accurate in the intermediate game, but also overlooked nationally as a downfield passer – in all, Manuel is one of the most accurate throwers in the country. The issue isn't just experience but also staying healthy, as we saw last fall; in that case, it's on the line to keep Manuel upright. There should be no question that Manuel can get it done for this offense.
He can do even more. I loved Manuel's performance against Notre Dame, when, on a fractured fibula, he willed an injury-ravaged offense to a four-point win. That's the sort of performance that not only wins hearts and minds but also lends confidence, and you could say that at that point – after two uneven weeks – Manuel needed a boost more than most. So what's he going to do as a senior? Make his name known nationally. I know that Manuel still has much to prove, but if he can stay clean, he'll absolutely pick teams apart in the short game, over the middle, downfield and on play-action. In my mind, Manuel's ready for a big year – he's going to lead this offense to the top of the A.C.C. and into a B.C.S. bowl.
The running game welcomes back senior Chris Thompson, who missed most of last season with a back injury. Two years ago, Thompson led the team in rushing; with him sidelined, the Seminoles turned to sophomore Devonta Freeman (579 yards), whose struggles mirrored the injury issues up front – after rushing for a combined 209 yards against Duke and Maryland, Freeman gained 290 yards on 69 carries over the year's final six games. Stronger play up front will lead to greater production on the ground, as you might expect, but don't look for one back to do all of the heavy lifting: F.S.U. will continue sharing the wealth among two or three backs. What Thompson gives this offense isn't a 200-carry back but rather some big-play potential, and this was missing last fall.
The third option would be James Wilder Jr., an awesomely gifted sophomore who is still finding his footing in this offense. At the very worst – if Wilder Jr. continues to struggle with the mental side of the game – he can be a valuable option in short-yardage situations, especially near the goal line. If everything clicks, Wilder Jr. can be a 125-carry, tough-running top back who can be extremely successful running behind the interior of the offensive line. But it's not necessarily just a matter of time for Wilder Jr.; he has a tremendous amount to prove before making the sort of impact most expected upon his arrival. If he falters, F.S.U. could turn the short-yardage role over to senior fullback Lonnie Pryor.
When discussing F.S.U.'s recruiting efforts since Fisher took over prior to the 2010 season, most highlight the staff's ability to reel in five-star defensive tackle after five-star tackle – and it has been impressive, by the way. But nearly as impressive has been the way this staff has rebuilt F.S.U.'s receiver corps to the point where it ranks among the deepest groups in the country. Leading the way is sophomore Rashad Greene (38 receptions for 596 yards and 7 scores), who led the team last fall in each major receiving category despite two major impediments: one, he was a rookie, and two, he missed four full games due to injury. A year later – and after an absolutely sublime performance against the Irish – Greene is poised to become one of A.C.C.'s top three receivers.
F.S.U. will go eight deep at the position. There's Greene and Rodney Smith (36 for 561), a lanky senior who must be used more in the red zone. There's junior Jarred Haggins and dangerous sophomore Christian Green (26 for 450), who head into the opener jostling for the starting role in the slot. Juniors Kenny Shaw (34 for 418), Greg Dent (12 for 236) and Willie Haulstead, the latter back from injury, supply superb depth. Freshman Marvin Bracy has worked his way into the two-deep. Redshirt freshman Kelvin Benjamin gives F.S.U. another bigger target on the outside. At tight end, the Seminoles return sophomore Nick O'Leary (12 for 164) and add in Penn State transfer Kevin Haplea, who could be a huge asset as a blocker. Loaded – this group is packed to the gills.
Take note: Something special is happening in Tallahassee. In 2010, Mark Stoops' first season as defensive coordinator, F.S.U. moved from 109th nationally in total defense to 42nd; to 20th nationally in scoring after bottoming out at 94th in 2009. Last fall, the Seminoles leapt into rarefied air: fourth in total defense, second against the run, fourth in scoring. How does that look? Well, you ain't seen nothing yet. Every piece of the front four returns, should one potential contributor return from injury. While there's one publicized loss in the secondary, it's unbelievably survivable – don't believe what you hear about Greg Reid's departure having a huge impact on F.S.U.'s pass defense. And the Seminoles are entering their third season under Stoops. This defense is going to be filthy.
It's a defense led by the best defensive line in college football – yes, better than L.S.U.'s front. It's so good it's scary: F.S.U.'s talent, depth, experience and potential makes it one of the great positional groupings in the entire country, in fact. I'm not sure where to begin – at end or inside. I could sum up the interior in one sentence: sophomore Timmy Jernigan (30 tackles, 6.5 for loss) is a backup. That's all you need to know.
Jernigan, a future star – he could be a star today for nearly every other program in the F.B.S. – will serve as the backup at nose guard to senior Amp McCloud (25 tackles, 5.0 for loss), a returning starter. That's fantastic. To start the year, the third option on the nose will be redshirt freshman Nile Lawrence-Stample, though that's not the Seminoles' only option; if he's healthy, senior Jacobbi McDaniel would slide into the rotation at the position. But that's a question mark. Is McDaniel, who injured his ankle last October, going to play at all this season or take a redshirt, creating more separation for this program? That's the only question Fisher, Stoops and this staff need to answer before starting conference play.
Senior Everett Dawkins (25 tackles) will start at the three-technique spot, backed up by junior Demonte McAllister and true freshman Eddie Goldman, who has thus far lived up to his five-star billing. And what about the program's second five-star recruit, Mario Edwards? There's so much talent at end as to likely leave Edwards on the sidelines, barring injury. The starting pairing of junior Bjoern Werner (37 tackles, 7.0 sacks) and senior Brandon Jenkins (41 tackles, 8.0 sacks) trails only Texas' Alex Okafor and Jackson Jeffcoat for the best duo in the country; their top backup, senior Tank Carradine (38 tackles, 5.5 sacks) is like Jernigan: he'd start everywhere else, just not in Tallahassee. This group is going to eat offensive linemen for lunch or dinner, depending on the time at kickoff.
Losing Reid hurts far more on special teams than it does in the secondary, though F.S.U. does need to find his replacement in the starting lineup. As expected, Stoops – who also coaches the secondary – will head into the opener with sophomore Nick Waisome as the starter. But that will change, with the only question how quickly F.S.U. opts to move true freshman Ronald Darby, a major recruit, into the lineup at field cornerback. For Waisome, any hope of retaining the top spot depends not on his ability to force turnovers but rather his ability to play error-free football; if he's consistent in his technique, doesn't freelance and plays up to Stoops' baseline for the position, Waisome could be one of the great surprises on this defense. However, I'd be very surprised if Darby doesn't move ahead of the sophomore before the heart of A.C.C. play.
F.S.U. has two all-American candidates in the secondary. The first is junior Xavier Rhodes (43 tackles), who, when healthy, motivated and on his game, can be one of the best cornerbacks in the country. The second is strong safety Lamarcus Joyner (54 tackles, 4 interceptions), who moves over from free safety, and superlatives run dry when discussing the junior. There's nothing he can't do: run with receivers – he played cornerback in the bowl game – jam up in the box, cover downfield from sideline to sideline – this defense asks much of Joyner, and he delivers without fail. And you know what? I feel like he's not valued to the right level nationally. Folks should pay attention: Joyner's a star. Rounding out the secondary is free safety Terrence Brooks, who played behind Joyner a year ago.
Where's the weakness? Nowhere. The front four will throw body after body after body at offensive lines, eventually wearing down all but a select few groups in the country – perhaps Alabama, and I'd love to see these lines go head-to-head in January. If the interior is as good as it can be, it'll absolutely dominate Clemson's offensive front; likewise Virginia Tech, though the Hokies will have two months to round into form before taking on the Seminoles. The linebackers are steady but overshadowed, as I'll touch on below. Joyner is a glue piece for the entire secondary. Could this be the best defense in college football? Without even the slightest doubt.
Reid's departure does leave a hole on punt returns, as mentioned above. F.S.U.'s solution will be use Greene and Shaw, and while both are gifted, it's only logical to expect a downturn in explosiveness. The Seminoles will also continue to use Joyner on kick returns, which is a mistake; he's far too valuable. F.S.U. also loses one of the nation's best punters in Shawn Powell, which is a second concern. In a positive vein, there aren't many better than Hopkins: he's prolific, accurate, consistent, steady under fire and a major, major weapon on kickoffs.
Position battle(s) to watch
Linebacker The Seminoles are going to miss Nigel Bradham on the weak side; he was the first F.S.U. defender since the great Marvin Jones to lead the team in tackles in three straight years. But while F.S.U. will miss Bradham's leadership, you have to love what this year's group, which returns two starters and a few meaningful reserves, can achieve behind F.S.U.'s jaw-dropping defensive front. The Seminoles made two noteworthy moves: one was transitioning junior Christian Jones (58 tackles, 3.0 sacks) from the strong side into Bradham's old shoes on the weak side. In the second move, Stoops and this staff pushed strong safety Nick Moody (23 tackles), a former starter, into Jones' role on the strong side. So it'll be this pair flanking senior Vince Williams (54 tackles, 5.0 for loss) and junior Telvin Smith (42 tackles, 8.5 for loss).
F.S.U. will use the same rotation inside: Williams is the more prototypical middle linebacker, one who can give this defense strong support against the run, while Smith's strength lies in his ability to play in space and in coverage. Depth on the outside comes from redshirt freshman Terrance Smith and true freshman Reggie Northrup, who will open the year on the strong and weak side, respectively. So why is this one of the top two linebackers corps in the A.C.C.? Because of the big boys up front, for one, but also because of the group's flexibility: Moody's background will be an asset, the Williams-Smith combination is extremely useful and Jones can clearly shift from the weak to the strong side in a pinch. These guys can get it done.
Game(s) to watch
This is a nice way to slide into the season: four straight home games, starting with two F.C.S. foes and ending with Clemson. The big games? Clemson's a big one, though the Seminoles can still take home the Atlantic with a loss. Virginia Tech, in Blacksburg on extra rest, is a conference title game preview. This year, Florida comes to Tallahassee. Every game is big, in fact, because F.S.U. is not earning a berth in the national championship game unless it runs the table – of this I'm nearly 100 percent sure. The Seminoles will get up for Clemson and the Hokies, especially with the latter on a Thursday night, but I can see two trap games: South Florida and N.C. State. The former comes right after Clemson, so there is a slight chance for a letdown. N.C. State is an interesting team, especially if Glennon can get rolling early. But it should be said that neither team should beat the Seminoles; F.S.U. is outrageously more talented than both.
Season breakdown & prediction
In a nutshell Barring injury, which sidelined Florida State's quest for a breakthrough last fall, this team will challenge for the national title. There's simply too much to like and too few question marks, even if the one issue does loom large: the offensive line. For me, the question isn't whether F.S.U. is going to do a better job running the football; the line's overall size – drastically improved over the recent past – and strong interior ensures that F.S.U. will taste far greater success on the ground. The question revolves around the line's ability to keep Manuel clean, and this will remain a concern until the two new tackles take on teams like Wake Forest and Clemson to end September. If the line rounds into form – and I think it will, though it won't be a dominating group – there may not be a better team in college football.
Manuel is going to have a superb season. Returning Thompson at running back grants the backfield a much-needed big-play threat to go with Wilder Jr., Pryor and Freeman. The receiver corps is one of the deepest in the nation. There's no better front four in the country: F.S.U.'s defensive line is going to rip game plans to shreds. While overshadowed, the Seminoles' linebackers are quick, flexible and strong in coverage, especially when Smith steps in for Williams at middle linebacker. There are two all-American candidates in the secondary, led by one of the nation's best in Joyner. There is a dangerous amount of talent, some wonderful coaching, some tremendous depth and competition across the board – and there's the feeling that this program is chomping at the bit for September.
I'm still convinced that last year's team could have made a championship run. Not to win the title, perhaps, but to hang in the mix deep into November. In other words, I don't think F.S.U. disappointed last fall, falling short of expectations for the umpteenth consecutive season; Seminoles were simply decimated by injuries. A year later, F.S.U. is ready to break out. There's too much here: there's too much for Fisher and his staff to work with. The schedule is too workable to miss this shot. There are seniors in key spots, gifted underclassmen at others, the program's best depth in years. It's all about living up to expectations, both along the offensive line and on a team-wide level. It's time for F.S.U.'s renaissance. The only reason I have F.S.U. here, behind Oregon and L.S.U., is due to the fact that I can think that the Seminoles have a better chance of losing a game – whether because the line struggles, or Manuel is injured – than the Ducks and Tigers. No matter how you cut it, this team is superb.
Dream season Florida State nets its third national title and second undefeated season behind Heisman-worthy quarterback play and the strongest defense in college football. A few choice scores: F.S.U. 41, Clemson 21; F.S.U. 38, South Florida 3; F.S.U. 56, Miami 2; F.S.U. 28, Virginia Tech 10; F.S.U. 39, Florida 7.
Nightmare season The Seminoles suffer another round of terrible injuries, especially along the offensive line, and finish 9-3 overall and second in the Atlantic division.

Close Cedar Rapids…but my guess goes to Youngstown St. ;)
The Noles sound pretty good…
Why look at a calendar? The pundits are anointing F.S.U. a top 5 team and predicting their return to college football's elite. That means it must be August. Because, nobody says those things in January. Come to think of it, they usually don't say those things in October.
@Gotham Gator
Typical gaytor fan. F.U. will have another unproductive game against the Noles at the end of the season…not to mention against L.S.U, Alabama, and Georgia. I wish the gaytors good luck because they are going to need it to have a winning season.
Great write-up as usual Paul.
One minor nit to pick: Lorenzo Booker is a Bear this season – at least as of right now.
Gotham Gator – are your jean shorts on too tight?
see you in November for your 3rd consecutive loss, Gotham Gator.
I am surprised you can write, because you show no evidence of having read anything in this preview. May God have mercy on your soul.
Luv the SEC talking points. FSU over hyped, blah blah blah, SEC strength of schedule, blah blah blah. Save it for the Finebaum show.
Great writeup. If the OL can give EJ enough time to run plays against Clemson and then continue to gel as the year progresses, I see this team having no more than 1 loss (VaTech). There is not one team other than Tech that this shouldn't beat soundly.
Paul, Paul, Paul. I do love your analyses, but I don't understand your continuing love affair with FSU. Teams that lose to Wake Forest and Virginia and that have proven unable to beat the top teams in their own not-so-strong conference don't just jump from 9-4 to the top 5 in the country or to the national championship game. Didn't happen last year (you predicted a #4 finish, while you re-ranked them at #23 by season's end). Save these top spots for teams that deserve them. Then again, if you didn't have these little quirks, your work would be SO good that we'd all hate you for it.
As usual, a great analysis of the team. Thanks for that. Because of you, I am the best-informed college football fan among by friends, who, despite my encouragement, just don't read this blog. Their loss.
Noles looks really good this year. Their gonna pound my gators into the ground AGAIN!
@Bill, I don't understand how you don't understand. I mean he's CLEARLY laid out his case and it really is hard to argue against it. Yes, they lost 4 games last year but if you look at the fashion in which they lost, you'll see that they were actually a FEW plays away from winning those games. OU, at that time was the better team and there aren't really any excuses for UVA. This team could have easily been 11-1 (Loss to OU) just like that. The BIG if for FSU is the Offensive Line if the OL plays well, FSU will have a great year. Everyone think it's an excuse but this team was really hit hard with the injury bug. How often do 4 true freshmen start a bowl game on the line? Probably hasn't happened in the modern CFB Era. The played well late in the game on all those guys (included others) have returned.
"FSU is back!"
-every sports writer every August for the last 5 years
I'm glad they finally learned to stop hyping Miami…
Jmac, I think FSU's a good team–but not a great team. Over the years since Fisher assumed the reins, they've had great talent and a lot of excuses for why the season went south on them (evidence that they're good is that 9-4 is "south"). And they scheduled far better opponents when they were independent than they have since they have been required to play mostly ACC teams. A good team can build a good record within the ACC and then tank outside. But FSU has lacked consistency even inside the ACC (Wake, UVA), so until they can leap that hurdle, I don't see them as worthy to be a top 5 team. Top 25? Usually so.
If we have normal injury luck we should be pretty good. Phil Steele said we lost 41 starts to injury last year. More then any unit in the country last year. Were going to be good knock on wood, how good depends on the oline and injuries.
FSU doesn't have the o-line to win a national title. Manuel is also way to inconsistent. Their defense is title worthy though.
My Gators are going to give them all they can handle this fall.
Both teams have great defenses and bad offenses.
@Bill at this point, nobody deserves to be ranked but can you honestly name many teams that you think will be better? This is a game of luck but if their were no injuries on any teams at all last year, FSU doesn't lose 4 games. The most they lose is 2 (OU and UVA) but I honestly think they'd lose only to OU. FSU was a good team last year with bad luck.
Look at Paul's rankings. You are pretty much admitting that OU belongs above them and probably West Va. So they are 13 at best. I also think Arkansas and Stanford can beat FSU. So like i said, I put FSU in the top 25, but not the top 5. But hey–we get to start finding out for realz THIS WEEK! Gotta love opening week.
Although I believe FSU is a better team this year, putting OU ahead of them would be fair. West Virginia would not beat FSU (they have their number), Arkansas maybe if the coach were not fired they'd have a chance but Stanford definitely wouldn't have a chance. FSU has an SEC caliber defense. If they are they nation's best, don't be surprised. Mark it down when the draft comes around.
Cheers to opening weekend! The only thing that sucks for me is that I have to be up @ 3AM for the ND vs. Army game since I'm in Hawaii.
@Jmac–agreed on the FSU D. As for ND/Army–OUCH! I have a hard enough time watching east coast games at 9:00 a.m. You are dedicated.
First off, neither of those first two games should even count towards the win column. One FCS patsy is weak enough, but TWO? Come on, Noles, you're better than that. Just schedule Talahassee High and get it over with.
Second, way to keep it classy with the "gaytors" comments. This isn't ESPN.com.
I've got no love for the SEC in general or UF in particular, but I know who I'll be rooting for on Nov. 24.
I am a very happy Gator today. I am also feeling very clever after posting the below on this article on August 30.
Why look at a calendar? The pundits are anointing F.S.U. a top 5 team and predicting their return to college football's elite. That means it must be August. Because, nobody says those things in January. Come to think of it, they usually don't say those things in October.

Waste Site Cleanup & Reuse in New England
Success Village, Bridgeport, Conn.
About 1,500 gallons of fuel oil spilled at Success Village at 100 Court St. in Bridgeport, Conn., after a fuel line in the boiler room broke. Much of the oil was removed by a sump pump into a storm drain that discharges to the Yellow Mill River and then to Long Island Sound. The release was reported to the Conn. Department of Environmental Protection the next day. A cleanup contractor was hired by DEP to address oil in the storm drain and the river. The US Coast Guard also responded to the scene because the Yellow Mill River discharges into the Long Island Sound.

Colin O'Donoghue opens the treasure chest - Part 3
Colin discusses his favourite scene, Emma and Hook's relationship and sword fighting in the final part of our exclusive interview.
Dreamy the dwarf falls in love with a clumsy fairy. Meanwhile, Emma investigates Kathryn's mysterious disappearance and Leroy the town drunk falls for a klutzy nun.
Thanks alot Channel 5. Couldnt even watch this bloody episode because you still did not provide subtitles and now the episode has expired!!!!!
Channel 5 as you know there are only 5 days left to view this episode. There are still no subtitles and I have been waiting for 3 weeks. I have not been able to watch this episode because i am hearing impaired. What are you going to do after 5 days? Remove this episode because 5 days are up? How is this fair to those who are still wating to watch this with subtitles? Please sort this out. Thank You.
When are you going to put up the subtitles? I am deaf and so cannot enjoy this programme though it is one of my faves. I missed the previous episode due to the subtitles coming up so late.
Come on Channel 5 - where are subtitles for this episode? You've had plenty of time to sort it out - how hard can it be?
Just back from my holidays missed to episodes really fed up as I can watch them as they wont play for me. Please Please sort out demand five!
Just wondering if anyone else noticed that when the blue fairy talks to Dreamy she is all small like fairies are...ut when the pink fairy his in love with talks to him shes taller than him???? :-)
This demand 5 is not so much demanding as frustratingly 5th rate. This is my last visit until C5 informs me it's fixed.
omg guys been reading the comment's that r supposed to be about the episode but quite frankly there arent can we just stop complainin plz some ppl are getting annoyed too no need to say the SAME THING over and over again they get it and are trying to sort it out!!!!!!
i cant watch this or episode 15 , as i missed them and trying to watch them on aps3 and its saying i need adobe flash player which ive already got???????
I have 2 episodes to catch up on and after 30mins of trying I still havent watched 5 minutes!! It wont load or play properly! I can watch anything else on itv player or whatever, but demand 5 is really poor by comparison :( I NEED to catch up, cant believe Ive missed 2 episodes in the first place, but its even worse now that I cant watch them!!
Unfortunately, we are continuing to experience problems with the subtitles for Episode 14 of Once Upon A Time although the subtitles have now been added to Episode 13 which can be found here
i'm agreeing with Hazel here, SORT YOURSELVES OUT! We deaf and hearing impaired viewers need subtitles so we don't miss anything important and so we can watch the programme in peace! For you to skip this one and do sundays one is a disgrace. I am very tempted to email you guys again.
Even though a few people have already asked there are still no subtitles. So, once again I am also asking - Please can we get the subtitles up for this episode so I can catch up. I notice that you have subtitled Sunday's episode already so why can't you do this one?
adverts show pretty well .. program not so much
This comment was removed by a moderator
this is stupid i have only got to watch half the show and that kept freezing not happy as i love this show it takes you away from the real world
Sophie/ Anna....its not a documentary... the whole point is its not in the real world. Seriously the storyline is completely fictional none of it makes sense... just enjoy it and dont analyse it or dont watch it...Its a FAIRYTALE!!
SUBTITLES.. AGAIN. Please Channel 5, Don't leave us Deafies out. Again and time again I've complained.....
The program just keeps freezing after a couple of lines. I have managed to watch not even 2 mins of this episode in half an hour YOU NEED TO SORT IT OUT .... useless
Sophie,I so agree with you! Although I enjoy watching it,this story is full of gaps, non realistic elements. That I whole town of people can't leave their town EVER and they don't even realize it,it is beyond absurd, or they didn't realize that,the time didn't move forward in the town,witch was already a nonsense. How did they live their life without time??... How did they cure patients, learned in class rooms, cooked boiled eggs, or used public transport or what about the internet or television? Could they watch Oprah,or the national news or weather? But how did they now,when it is on,when they didn't have time? and the list could go on and on. What you mentioned: Emma being sheriff, she couldn't possibly be a sheriff anywhere in the real world ,since she has been in jail herself.
:( I am so disappointed! :( I don't understand everything without the subtitles :(
pleaze subtitles, come on don't waste my time wait for it like a week!
SUBTITLES! WOULD YOU PUT THE SUBTITLES ON?! you've already done it for the last episode and NCIS but please PUT SUBTITLES ON THIS ONE!! yours frustratingly
Every time I have tried to watch this particular episode it freezes during the adverts, usually at around 100 or 70 seconds of adverts to go. It's ridiculous! I refresh the page, more adverts, and exactly the same problem. I have tried reporting the problem over and over again but it makes no difference, and that was a week ago now.
i am still waiting for subtitles! as i can not watch this sun next one as i need to know and follow the story. come on! bad service as u treat me like third class as not equal access!!
hi channel 5 people still cant watch this show every time i try to submit a problem i keep getting the show in front of the security code and i cant type in the code so i can let you no that there is a problem before it took me a few hours to watch this show no i cant watch it at all can you please fix this problem so i can watch it many thanks
Episode was great. Was a bit blury when the adverts came on but everythink was fab, programme didn't freeze or anything!
same here keeps freeing up thught it was just me really anoyed me u try watch sumthing and its buggers up if anyone finds a solution of how to watch it with no problems that b gd
You must be ashamed of the level of service offered to your customers. I have spent 30 minutes of my life trying to play this TV show. Frozen! If you can't provide the service you offer, then DON'T OFFER IT!!! All I want is an hour of 'chewing gum for the mind', instead I have had 30 minutes of frustration which I don't need. This doesn't happen abroad..... Pick up your act!
I'm having the same problems a lot of your viewers are. Every time I use this service the video pauses!!! Unfortunately its great at playing adverts! this is putting me off ever usind Demand five again, as I have been unnable to watch three episodes now.
Had to give up, got to within 7 minutes of the end. Will go back to recording on DVD at least you can whizz through the adverts. Won't be using Channel 5 catch up again.
Had to give up, got to within 7 minutes of the end of the program and it froze completely. Won't be using Channel 5 catch up again, need to go back to recording on DVD. At least you can whizz through the adverts.
Try using the "Report a problem with this video". I used this and got 20 minutes without a freeze. Maybe if we all use it someone will take notice. You have to sit through adverts again but it may be worth it.
channel 5 ! do you ever read anybodys comments .. this is getting beyond a joke !!! please get it sorted.
grr keeps crashing every 5 10 mins needs to sort it out please , i always miss this programme :(
How come I can watch the BBC Iplayer no problem and yet this rubbish service freezes all the time. Obviously no one from Channel 5 reads these comments. I've tried Firefox, Chrome and IE. None of them work. I have a top of the range computer and a high speed network. Is channel 5 running this off a laptop server?
Come on Demand5 sort out the freezing issues
subtitles pls! today it is weds! it suppose to have subtitles by monday!!
The thing won't play. I'm annoyed now.
I feel for all you people who get pauses and freezing, because I'm lucky and I don't, but this is SUCH a great series - and there's a missing add that makes me feel even better about watching it, you all know which one I mean. Sure people might think it's schmattzy, but admit it, doesn't it give you hope? It's a brilliant story. Every episode makes me sorry it's over and I'll be buying the dvd series as soon as it comes out. It shows us what we can do if we just carry on doing what's right. fcuk the people who don't. That's their problem, don't make it yours.
Sophie - she used to be a bounty hunter, which I'd say was pretty good experience for a sherrif, and she was elected. She was also made vice-sherrif by the last sherrif. If that's the bit you find most unbelievable then you are very believing!
I am sick of seeing people moaning about demad 5, it plays perfectly every time, either change your interent provider or change to firefox rather that internet explorerer or complain direct to channel 5 rather than saying on here because we are interested in the programme... as for the programme, its getting more and more addictive to watch, I know it feels like the evil queen is winning, but she is fighting hard where most do not beleive that what they are experiencing is not every day, I am hooked, and each time someone does sort things out it's brilliant, I wonder where people go when they disappear at the edge of town.... happy birthday to jamieleigh....
I can't help but watch the series but at the same time snort my way through it because it's so nonsensical. It would be fine of the fairyworld was just nonsense but the 'real world 'stuff is also bizarre - how can Emma just become sheriff with no qualifications or background checks - surely coming from the outside world she's be a bit alarmed that they could make her sheriff in 5 minutes. How much of a rubbish sheriff is she to let the reporter produce the vital evidence that she then relies on, and offers herself to be manipulated rather then getting it herself. She behaves like she knows what she's doing but she's completely incompetent! The dialogue is often so excruciating and basic it makes me choke, the reasoning behind the things the characters do is bizarre. Why would Mary Margeret tell the chap to leave his wife, he does and then she decides he didn't do it the right way and decides that she cant then be with him because in some way he lied - thus condemning them both to misery and making it pointless him leaving his wife - he might as well not have bothered. Sorry, I'm having a right moan! I'm surprised that no one mentions any of that stuff or maybe everyone that watches it is far less cynical.
Cannot watch due to constant pauses! Sort it out!!
Cannot watch due to constant pauses! Sort it out!!
Very disappointed to find it has no subtitles as it would have helped me to understand what it is all about. I am registered deaf and I could not understand it at all just after 5 minutes, Channel 5 please give subtitles back!
Again can't watch this programme. Have tried all suggestions and had no reply from my email to Channel Five about this.
I am begining to hate this programme as well as love it. Is the evil queen always going to win? Its so frustating. I do hope its not one of those that the net work will axe with out a satisfactory end. Because i might have to through the telly out the window!!!!!
hi to everyone having problems watching this. if u have a greyed out screen it is because cookies from the web site are being blocked by your privacy settings. yours settings need to be medium - low to watch this, u can always set it back when u have finished watching if u are worried about computer security :)
hi all just wondering if there is another web page that shows this show because when i miss it on the tv it always takes me a few hours to watch the missed episode on this web page
USE INTERNET EXPLORER-- I can't get it to even work, i.e. let me play it at all (the 'play' icon doesn't even appear) on Firefox. I can only assume this is because of my security settings (which I'll admit are pretty Fort Knox -- I have ad blocker, etc.). I reckon many people may be using alternative browsers with similar features, which are blocking it playing for them. Those of you with stop/start probs, it's blatantly your bandwith :( Channel 5's service seems pretty awful on that front, and I reckon I'll probably have similar issues myself. Sort it out Channel 5!
THe answer would seem to be watch it before 6pm, C5 won't invest in the infrastructure to allow for peak demand which is why we can't watch it in the evenings
A few bobbles in the broadcast but it could be the time of night. Great story.though
the advertisements in between the shows are really annoying.
i love this show !
i was just thinking how well it was going. then it cut off in the middle of Leroy/Astrid's emotional conversation. please sort it :)
SUBTITLES? This is the 2nd episode that has no subtitles, please fix them both please. I have noticed a lot of deaf people complaining already. SUBTITLES NOW!
dont wanna sound bigheaded but i have never had a problem with any demand 5 programs, all pretty smooth, on the program love it so much glad there making a 2nd series, best program on tv at the moment.
Personally I never have any problems when viewing episodes of my favourite programmes on Demand 5, and I do understand how frustrating it is for people who are having to miss out on the cath up service. But I would occassionally like to be able to read the comments section to see how much the viewers have enjoyed or disliked an epsiode, and to share opinions on plot developments not just hear complaints.
the comment that it is the internet connection sounds about right. i have had a few problems myself. i have fairly new computer that is quite fast. it seems to me the computer does not down load the program quick as it runs. the trick i have worked is to push play for about five seconds of the adverts pause and go make a cup of tea then push play and it seems to run smoothly. in my opinion demand 5's down load speed is to slow and can't keep up with play

wats with the freeze froze 3 times now peed off sort it out please very annoying
I had no problems watching this episode and enjoyed it,.
finally sorted out the ridiculous number of ads. few freezes but worked fine for me
I'm having trouble too, froze at the first ad break, now it keeps having problems. I won't list them all, but every time I have to refresh, and I have to keep sitting through a min of ad breaks. Maybe it will be better for tomorrow (and it's not my computer either, as I never have problems normally)
It has worked fine for me. I started watching this episode shortly after it appeared online. No ads, no freezes, the service has run smoothly from start to finish. I use Firefox with some clever add-ons, and have a fairly reliable internet connection. BTW very sweet episode, this one, with the dwarves and the fairies.

i just get through the adverts, and then it stops.. blank screen, wont work!! :(
i cant even start it as soon as i click play it comes up with the grey screen with the ! in a circle it might be the computer because iv had a lot of problems with it recently but still its not normally this bad anyone had this or has any advice
Yep, keeps on cutting out for me as well
looking really forward to watching this and now it keeps on stopping:@
This is rediculous. Every time I tell Channel 5 that there is an issue with an episode, they tell me that it is my internet connection. Then explain to me how I can watch the first half of the episode repeatedly with mo problems but the minute I reach the break at 20 minutes, it goes all screwy and starts freezing on me every 3 minutes.
I cant watch it either! I get the frst scene then it freezes!!! GRRRrrr. Normally I can watch it no probs.
Yep have the same problem every week, even tried it using Firefox, very frustrating come on channel 5 give us some advice !!!!
Me too, cant watch it either!!
Usually, this service is very good. However, this programme gets to 7:33, freezes for ten seconds, skips back about three, plays till 8:41, freezes, skips back even more, etc. I've watched the same bit four times!!! Admittedly, the freezing is correcting itself rather than I have to reload the page, but I did just watch one scene until I could recite it. I also had to hear Dreamy say "What am I doing-?" half a dozen times. And then the picture goes all weird so it's just a load of shifting vertical lines. Is this just me? If so, any advice?
hope you are having a Great Birthday Jamieleigh but WHEN will this series end?
Happy Birthday then jamieleigh
not long 2 go now happy bday
sooooo carnt wait till this episode comes it on my birthday 2 :)

XELODA Indications and Important Safety Information
XELODA is indicated as a single agent for adjuvant treatment in patients with Dukes' C colon cancer who have undergone complete resection of the primary tumor when treatment with fluoropyrimidine therapy alone is preferred. XELODA was non-inferior to 5-fluorouracil and leucovorin (5-FU/LV) for disease-free survival (DFS). Physicians should consider results of combination chemotherapy trials, which have shown improvement in DFS and overall survival (OS), when prescribing single-agent XELODA in the adjuvant treatment of Dukes' C colon cancer.
XELODA is indicated as first-line treatment of patients with metastatic colorectal carcinoma when treatment with fluoropyrimidine therapy alone is preferred. Combination chemotherapy has shown a survival benefit compared to 5-FU/LV alone. A survival benefit over 5-FU/LV has not been demonstrated with XELODA monotherapy. Use of XELODA instead of 5-FU/LV in combinations has not been adequately studied to assure safety or preservation of the survival advantage.
XELODA monotherapy is indicated for the treatment of patients with metastatic breast cancer resistant to both paclitaxel and an anthracycline-containing chemotherapy regimen or resistant to paclitaxel and for whom further anthracycline therapy is not indicated, eg, patients who have received cumulative doses of 400 mg/m2 of doxorubicin or doxorubicin equivalents. Resistance is defined as progressive disease while on treatment, with or without an initial response, or relapse within 6 months of completing treatment with an anthracycline-containing adjuvant regimen.
XELODA in combination with docetaxel is indicated for the treatment of patients with metastatic breast cancer after failure of prior anthracycline-containing chemotherapy.
Boxed WARNING and Additional Important Safety Information
Boxed WARNING
Warfarin Interaction — Coagulopathy
- Patients receiving concomitant capecitabine and oral coumarin-derivative anticoagulant therapy should have their anticoagulant response (INR or prothrombin time) monitored frequently in order to adjust the anticoagulant dose accordingly.
- A clinically important XELODA-warfarin drug interaction was demonstrated in a clinical pharmacology trial.
- Altered coagulation parameters and/or bleeding, including death, have been reported in patients taking XELODA concomitantly with coumarin-derivative anticoagulants such as warfarin and phenprocoumon.
- Postmarketing reports have shown clinically significant increases in prothrombin time (PT) and INR have been observed in patients who were stabilized on anticoagulants at the time XELODA was introduced. These events occurred within several days and up to several months after initiating XELODA therapy, and infrequently within 1 month after stopping XELODA. These events occurred in patients with and without liver metastases.
- Age greater than 60 and a diagnosis of cancer independently predispose patients to an increased risk of coagulopathy.
- XELODA is contraindicated in patients with known dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD) deficiency, or severe renal impairment. XELODA is also contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to capecitabine or to any of its components or to 5-fluorouracil.
- Additional serious adverse reactions include diarrhea, cardiotoxicity, hand-and-foot syndrome, and hyperbilirubinemia. XELODA can cause fetal harm. Advise women of the potential risk to the fetus. Do not treat patients with neutrophil counts <1.5 x 109/L or thrombocyte counts <100 x 109/L.
- The most common adverse reactions (≥30%) reported with XELODA were diarrhea, hand-and-foot syndrome, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, fatigue/weakness, and hyperbilirubinemia. Other adverse reactions, including serious adverse reactions, have been reported.
Monotherapy in Dukes' C Stage (III) Colon Cancer
In a phase 3 study of XELODA monotherapy in colon cancer in the adjuvant setting, serious adverse events (grade 3/4) occurring in ≥5% of patients receiving either XELODA or 5-FU/LV (%;%) were increase in bilirubin (20;7), hand-foot syndrome (17;<1), decrease in lymphocytes (13;13), diarrhea (12;14), decrease in neutrophils/granulocytes (3;27), decrease in neutrophils (3;27), stomatitis (2;14), and neutropenia (<1;5). The most common adverse events for all grades occurring in ≥30% of patients receiving either XELODA or 5-FU/LV were hand-foot syndrome (60;9), diarrhea (47;65), nausea (34;47), and stomatitis (22;60). A total of 18 deaths due to all causes occurred either on study or within 28 days of receiving study drug: 8 (0.8%) patients randomized to XELODA and 10 (1.0%) randomized to 5-FU/LV.
Monotherapy in mCRC
In two phase 3 trials of XELODA monotherapy in metastatic colorectal cancer, serious adverse events (grade 3/4) occurring in ≥5% of patients receiving either XELODA or 5-FU/LV (%;%) were hyperbilirubinemia (23;6), hand-foot syndrome (17;1), diarrhea (15;12), abdominal pain (<10;5), vomiting (<5;<5), ileus (5;3), stomatitis (<3;15), and neutropenia (3;21). The most common adverse events for all grades occurring in ≥30% of patients receiving either XELODA or 5-FU/LV were anemia (80;79), diarrhea (55;61), hand-foot syndrome (54;6), hyperbilirubinemia (48;17), nausea (43;51), fatigue/weakness (42;46), abdominal pain (35;31), vomiting (27;30), appetite decrease (26;31), stomatitis (25;62), and neutropenia (13;46). A total of 82 deaths due to all causes occurred either on study or within 28 days of receiving study drug: 50 (8.4%) patients randomized to XELODA and 32 (5.4%) randomized to 5-FU/LV.
Monotherapy in mBC
In a single arm study of XELODA monotherapy in metastatic breast cancer, serious adverse events (grade 3/4) occurring in ≥5% of patients receiving XELODA (%) were lymphopenia (59), diarrhea (15), hand-foot syndrome (11), hyperbilirubinemia (11), fatigue (8), stomatitis (7), and dehydration (5). The most common adverse events for all grades occurring in ≥30% of patients receiving XELODA were lymphopenia (94), anemia (72), diarrhea (57), hand-foot syndrome (57), nausea (53), fatigue (41), dermatitis (37), and vomiting (37).
Combination Therapy with Docetaxel in mBC
In a phase 3 study of XELODA combination therapy (XELODA plus docetaxel) in metastatic breast cancer, serious adverse events (grade 3/4) occurring at a ≥2% higher incidence in patients receiving XELODA plus docetaxel vs docetaxel alone (%;%) were lymphocytopenia (89;84), hand-foot syndrome (24;1), stomatitis (<18;5), diarrhea (<15;<6), anemia (10;<6), hyperbilirubinemia (9;4), nausea (7;2), vomiting (5;2), constipation (2;0), and nail disorder (2;0).

Drug Rehabilitation Centers: Facilitates Drug Independence To Boost Quality Of Life

When addiction comes into your way, things will be absolutely changed for sure. Self control is one the most challenging things to do for an addict and worse, impossible. However, one should try even harder to succeed in such thing. You can search for an answer to every problem that you may encounter. Some solutions for this might be consistent medication and continuous support from loved ones. A drug addict must accept the reality that he is over powered by addiction first before the medication begins. Keep in mind that drug rehabilitation programs are nothing if there will be no acceptance from the client.

Drug rehabilitation is described as a process of medical or psychotherapeutic treatment for people who create addiction on psychoactive substances. One will be taken to rehabilitation centers for the treatment. Treating patient in this situation is in two ways and these are inpatient treatment and outpatient services as well. What is best regarding the former one is that it involves a health care facility where a client is taken cared of and health care staffs who will be there for help. This type of approach is definitely not a short-term one. On the other hand, the latter gives a more flexible approach. The client will still able to socialize and will be just seeking help based on the set schedule. Yes, this treatment option is also great just like the other one however the problem here is the high risk of relapse. That is the reason why inpatient treatment is more recommended. But, the final decision is still yours to make. Hence, you are required to choose wisely in this particular situation.
In a drug rehabilitation establishment, you can usually find a couple of medications – health care treatments and psychotherapeutic therapies. The medical treatment goes by giving medications crucial in relieving the withdrawal's symptoms. It is vital to discuss the cause of your addiction to help medical professionals in giving you a medical therapy plan that can lead to good results. In psychotherapeutic treatment, it is expected that there are group therapies and individual treatment that will be done. For sure, this important treatment will take a lot of challenge because of the fact that great minds is required for an effective treatment. Moreover, through these sessions, they'll be motivated and encouraged in working with their addiction issue because they're never alone in this fight.
The duration of time that one must devote in a drug rehabilitation center depends upon various factors like how serious the drug addiction is, just how long the person has lived with their addiction, and lastly how intense the treatment plan is. If you will submit yourself to a drug rehabilitation center nonetheless, anticipate that you'll have a minimum of 1 month for the treatment process.

UPDATE: 3 American doctors killed by Afghan hospital guard
Conflicting reports on progress in Boston Bombing case
BOSTON -- ABC News -- Authorities are close to identifying a suspect in the deadly Boston Marathon bombing, an official in Boston told ABC News.
ABC News' Boston affiliate, WCVB, reported a source had said a suspect has already been identified and an arrest is imminent. Surveillance video taken from cameras at a Lord & Taylor along the marathon route helped identify the suspect, WCVB said.
A pair of blasts erupted Monday afternoon near the finish line of the Boston Marathon, killing three people and injuring more than 170 others.
Authorities said they have been analyzing thousands of photos of the event and tracking down as many leads since the bombing. Tuesday ABC News reported part of a pressure cooker bomb had been recovered from the scene with wires, shrapnel and a circuit board. That evidence has been sent to the FBI lap in Quantico, Virginia for analysis, officials said.
New details released on bombs used in Boston attack
Boston - AP - One of the explosive devices used in the Boston Marathon attack appears to have been placed in a metal pressure cooker packed with nails and ball bearings, CBS News has learned, as authorities appealed to the public Tuesday for amateur video and photos that might yield clues to the bombing.
The details on the explosives emerged as the chief FBI agent in Boston vowed "we will go to the ends of the Earth" to find those responsible.
A law enforcement source told CBS News senior investigative producer Pat Milton that one of the explosive devices appears to have been placed in a metal pressure cooker (a metal kitchen pot with a locked-down top) which had been placed in a black nylon bag or backpack. Investigators also found pieces of an electronic circuit board possibly indicating a timer was used in the detonation of the bomb.
A law enforcement official told CBS News that the two bombs that exploded were made to look like discarded property. It is still unknown if one or both bombs were in garbage cans. One may have been on the sidewalk.
The bombs were described as "low explosive," but with "anti-personnel" packing. The official said there were apparently things like BB's, ball bearings and nails in the bombs. This is consistent with doctors reporting shrapnel pulled from victims.
A doctor treating the wounded said one of the victims was maimed by what looked like ball bearings or BBs. Doctors also said they removed a host of sharp objects from the victims, including nails that were sticking out of one little girl's body.
At the White House, meanwhile, President Barack Obama said that the bombings were an act of terrorism but that investigators do not know if they were carried out by an international organization, a domestic group or a "malevolent individual."
He added: "The American people refuse to be terrorized."
Across the U.S., from Washington to Los Angeles, police stepped up security, monitoring landmarks, government buildings, transit hubs and sporting events. Security was especially tight in Boston, with bomb-sniffing dogs checking Amtrak passengers' luggage at South Station and transit police patrolling with rifles.
"They can give me a cavity search right now and I'd be perfectly happy," said Daniel Wood, a video producer from New York City who was waiting for a train.
Similar pressure-cooker explosives have been used in Afghanistan, India, Nepal and Pakistan, according to a July 2010 intelligence report by the FBI and Homeland Security. Also, one of the three devices used in the May 2010 Times Square attempted bombing was a pressure cooker, the report said.
"Placed carefully, such devices provide little or no indication of an impending attack," the report said.
The Pakistani Taliban, which claimed responsibility for the 2010 attempt in Times Square, has denied any role in the Boston Marathon attack.
The two bombs blew up about 10 seconds and around 100 yards apart Monday near the finish line of the 26.2-mile race, tearing off limbs, knocking people off their feet and leaving the streets stained with blood and strewn with broken glass. The dead included an 8-year-old boy and a 29-year-old woman.
"We started grabbing tourniquets and started tying legs. A lot of people amputated," said Roupen Bastajian, a state trooper from Smithfield, R.I., who had just finished the race when he heard the explosions.
Federal investigators said no one had claimed responsibility for the bombings, which took place at the world's best-known distance race, held every year on one of Boston's biggest holidays, Patriots' Day.
"We will go to the ends of the Earth to identify the subject or subjects who are responsible for this despicable crime, and we will do everything we can to bring them to justice," said Richard DesLauriers, FBI agent in charge in Boston.
He said investigators had received "voluminous tips" and were interviewing witnesses and analyzing the crime scene.
Gov. Deval Patrick said that contrary to earlier reports, no unexploded bombs were found.
Boston police and firefighter unions announced a $50,000 reward for information leading to arrests in the bombing.
Law enforcement sources told CBS News' Milton that a Saudi Arabian man who was being questioned by investigators is not being considered a suspect at this time, and it appears that he was a spectator who was injured in the attack.
At a news conference, police and federal agents repeatedly appealed for any video, audio and photos taken by marathon spectators, even images that people might not think are significant.
"There has to be hundreds, if not thousands, of photos and videos" that might help investigators, state police Col. Timothy Alben said.
Boston Police Commissioner Edward Davis said investigators also gathered a large number of surveillance tapes from businesses in the area and intend to go through the videos frame by frame.
"This is probably one of the most photographed areas in the country yesterday," he said.
At least 17 people were critically injured, police said. At least eight children were being treated at hospitals. In addition to losing limbs, victims suffered broken bones, shrapnel wounds and ruptured eardrums.
Dr. Stephen Epstein of the emergency medicine department at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center said he saw an X-ray of one victim's leg that had "what appears to be small, uniform, round objects throughout it — similar in the appearance to BBs."
Dr. Richard Wolfe, chief of Emergency Medicine at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, told CBS News Tuesday that the injuries sustained in the bombing have been primarily shrapnel injury in the lower extremities.
"Some hand injuries, but mainly devastating injuries to limbs," Wolfe said. "We have at least two amputations and a number of very serious wounds that require fairly aggressive care."
Eight-year-old Martin Richard was among the dead, said U.S. Rep. Stephen Lynch, a family friend. The boy's mother, Denise, and 6-year-old sister, Jane, were badly injured. His brother and father were also watching the race but were not hurt.
Krystle Campbell, a 29-year-old restaurant manager, also died in the bombing, WBZ Radio confirmed Tuesday afternoon. William Campbell told the AP that his daughter had gone with her best friend to take a picture of the friend's boyfriend crossing the finish line.
Neighbor Betty Delorey said Martin loved to climb neighborhood trees and hop the fence outside his home.
About 23,000 runners participated in this year's Boston Marathon. Nearly two-thirds of them had crossed the finish line by the time the bombs exploded, but thousands more were still completing the course.
Demi Clark, a runner from North Carolina who said she was the crossing finish line as the first blast went off, told CBSNews.com "blood was everywhere instantly."
"Nobody knew what to do - after the second one went off we were like, 'the city's under attack,'" Clark said.
The attack may have been timed for maximum bloodshed: The four-hour mark is typically a crowded time near the finish line because of the slow-but-steady recreational runners completing the race and because of all the friends and relatives clustered around to cheer them on.
Davis, the police commissioner, said authorities had received "no specific intelligence that anything was going to happen" at the race. On Tuesday, he said that two security sweeps of the route had been conducted beforehand.
Patriots' Day commemorates the opening shots of the American Revolution, at Concord and Lexington in 1775.
Richard Barrett, the former U.N. coordinator for an al Qaeda and Taliban monitoring team who has also worked for British intelligence, said the relatively small size of the devices in Boston and the timing of the blasts suggest a domestic attack rather than an al Qaeda-inspired one.
"This happened on Patriots' Day — it is also the day Americans are supposed to have their taxes in — and Boston is quite a symbolic city," said Barrett, now senior director at the Qatar International Academy for Security Studies.
UPDATE: A Child among the 3 dead in Boston Marathon terror attack
BOSTON (ABC) - The death toll in the Boston Marathon bombings has increased to three people, according to the Boston Police commissioner.
Among the dead was an 8-year-old boy, law enforcement sources told ABC News. The Boston Globe identifies the dead child as Martin Richard.
"This cowardly act will not be taken within stride," Boston Police Commissioner Ed Davis said this evening. "We will turn every rock over to find the people who are responsible for this."
At least 133 people were injured, including several children with severe trauma, when bombs exploded almost simultaneously near the marathon finish line, police said.
Doctors at two Massachusetts hospitals said some of the victims underwent amputations and were suffering from burns, while others had sustained injuries from shrapnel to their lower extremities.
"Everything we saw was ordinary material that could have been propelled by the device," said Dr. Ron Walls, chair of emergency medicine at Brigham and Women's Hospital.
FBI Taking Charge of Investigation
The FBI has taken the lead in the investigation and at a news conference tonight said there are no suspects in custody.
Despite reports of law enforcement officials questioning a potential person of interest at Brigham and Women's Hospital, where many of the injured were taken, Davis urged caution.
"There's no suspect at Brigham and Women's Hospital," Davis said. "There are people we are talking to, but no suspect."
ABC News can confirm that one of the people law enforcement officials are talking to is a 20-year-old Saudi national at a Boston hospital. Sources tell ABC News that he is here legally on a student visa and that his visa is clean with no apparent criminal history.
Boston police tonight, at a news conference, said that there are people they are talking to, but no suspects.
Two bombs exploded near the race finish line on Boylston Street shortly before 3 p.m. The area was crowded with runners and spectators, and thousands of runners were still completing the race.
Davis declined to say whether he thought the devices were acts of terrorism, but said, "You can reach your own conclusion based on what happened."
According to law enforcement sources, the first bomb exploded at the Marathon Sports running store and blew out windows in four nearby buildings, injuring 15 to 20 individuals. The second blast occurred about 50 to 100 yards away, severely injuring more bystanders, Davis said.
The working theory about the bombs among Massachusetts law enforcement is that they were small, crudely made devices hidden in bags or backpacks, planted either during the race or immediately prior and detonated remotely, possibly with a cellphone. Officials have subpoenaed cellphone records.
More than 400 National Guardsmen in attendance at the marathon helped secure a perimeter around the scene.
One witness described the scene as being like a "war zone," while a doctor who was standing nearby said he immediately started treating people with severe leg injuries.
"Six or so people went down right away on my left, mostly with leg injuries. One gentleman had both legs below the knee blown off," Dr. Allan Panter, a physician who witnessed the event, told ABC News. "One girl I treated, I could not find any obvious injury to her torso, but she arrested. She was between 24 and 30.
"The people had singed facial hair and stuff. Most of the injuries were on their legs," Panter said. "I was 20 feet away, one storefront down. My ears were ringing. Everything blew out from the storefront."
Police initially said a third explosion occurred at John F. Kennedy Library in Boston, but later said it was related to a fire. No one was injured at the library, police said.
The Federal Aviation Administration issued a temporary flight restriction over the area of the explosion.
Police were asking for all video footage of the finish line at the time of the explosion.
An emergency room doctor at Massachusetts General Hospital told ABC News that the hospital had performed several amputations, particularly on victims whose legs were injured. Many of the victims were runners still wearing numbers on their shirts, the doctor said.
He described the injuries as "shrapnel-type wounds" possibly caused by "pipe bombs," though police have not confirmed that description.
Earlier, a trauma nurse from Massachusetts General Hospital told ABC News that medical workers had set up a temporary morgue at a medical tent at the road race and were treating patients with severed limbs and children with severe burns.
In the immediate aftermath of the explosions, Boston EMS personnel could be seen shuttling the injured out of the blast area on wheelchairs. Several of the victims were bleeding from the face.
A doctor who was in the medical tent about 150 yards away from the explosion said it looked like a "war zone," with "lots of blood," and said that all physicians were told to go to the scene and help the injured.
Boston police set off a third explosion before 4 p.m. and were sweeping the area, checking dozens of bags left behind by runners who evacuated the area after the explosions. Officials also tested for chemicals to help determine what kind of device was used, according to police.
Attorney General Eric Holder was in touch with the FBI in Boston and President Obama was notified of the blasts. All of Boston's police force was ordered to report to duty.
Security precautions were taken elsewhere beyond Boston. In Washington, D.C., Pennsylvania Avenue in front of the White House was closed to pedestrians and there was heightened security.
In Boston, police told people in area of the blasts to avoid trash cans, according to witnesses.
The explosions erupted on what is usually a festive day in Boston. It is designated Patriots Day and most offices are closed for the celebration and the marathon.
Debris from the explosions could be seen scattered throughout the spectators' stands and finish line area of the marathon as emergency personnel cleared the area.
Video of the explosions showed plumes of white smoke pouring into the air above the street where runners were.
More than 26,00 runners were registered to compete in this year's marathon. The marathon clock was at shortly after four hours at the time of the explosions, which is the average time it takes runners to complete the Boston race, potentially putting the greatest number of competitors at risk.

We got to talk to the filmmaker about what it is about ghost stories that always inspires him, what to expect from the forthcoming "Devil's Backbone" Criterion release (another ghost story), where "Haunted Mansion," "Crimson Peak" and "Beauty and the Beast" are in his busy development pipeline, his day job at DreamWorks Animation and why his Disney Double Dare You shingle broke down (hint: it had something to do with "Don't Be Afraid of the Dark").
What is it about ghosts that constantly fascinates you?
You know, amongst the characters in supernatural fiction, one of the ones I've been the most intrigued about is ghosts. I've done "Devil's Backbone," produced "The Orphanage," read every ghost story that you need to read for the curriculum, everybody that is noteworthy. And I think it's steeped in tradition. In England they used to tell great ghost stories during Christmas and I really find that it is, of the themes in horror, the one that invites themes of reflection. You reflect about what it is to be human, what it is to be alive, so on and so forth.
And "Devil's Backbone" is something you're revisiting for a new Criterion disc. What do you have planned for that?
We've done a new transfer, we're doing a new sound mix. Criterion is really streamlined about the extras – they don't want to put a lot, they only want to put the good stuff. So they are really, right now, designing what they want. We know we want to do a second part for the "Bleak House" [Guillermo del Toro's office, which is stuffed to the gills with monster-related bric-a-brac and macabre miscellanea] because we have so many rooms left. There's a whole second half of the house!
"Haunted Mansion" is very much alive and in process. Disney is very supportive and we are doing another draft of the screenplay… Yet another draft… And they really want to do it. I know we're going to talk about other possible directors, for me to produce, and having written it, produce it for somebody else.
What's the tone going to be like?
It's going to be scary. Hopefully it will be fun scary, rather than funny scary. It's going to be fun but the idea is to make it scary like when you go through the ride as the kid – part of you is charmed and part of you wants to get out of there.
"Crimson Peak" is a ghost story too right?
Yes, but fortunately, like in comedies you can have Woody Allen or The Farrelly Brothers or you can do Preston Sturges or Lubitsch or all of these things. There are so many ways to tell a ghost story. "Crimson Peak" is a gothic romance. I don't mean that there's going to be a guy who appears with a dozen flowers singing in the balcony, what I mean is that, in the most classical definition of the term, it's a gothic romance. It's got a lot of darkness and sound and fury and drama and stormy; but at the core of it is a scary movie.
Is that still going to be next?
Yes, God willing. We're going to be doing the pilot for the series "The Strain" [based on the trilogy of novels co-written by Del Toro and "The Town" author Chuck Hogan] for Fox and then I'm going to go right into the prep for "Crimson Peak."
Where does "Beauty and the Beast" fit in?
We just got the first draft from Andrew Davies, who wrote some BBC Charles Dickens miniseries, to great effect, including two of my favorites of his – "Little Dorrit" and "Bleak House." I love his work. So we just got it. I'm doing a pass myself and then we'll send it to the studio for reactions.
What is it like to have this film, which probably wasn't on your radar at all until a little while ago, opening at the same time as "The Hobbit," which you spent 18 months on?
All I can say is that it's been a very busy end of the year. We were prepping the launch of "Pacific Rim," we were prepping the launch of "Rise of the Guardians," I was prepping the launch of "Mama." And the result is I'm going to see "The Hobbit" next week. Peter [Jackson] was kind enough to offer a private screening and I said, "Look, I want to see it with an audience." And I got the screener from the Academy and I said, "I don't want to see it on my TV. I want to go to the theater." Then my daughters say, "Don't go without us!" And I say, "Don't go without me!" When you have two kids it's like making an appointment for the ambassador of Zambia.

A Little Spring in Your Cellar
Sunday, March 21, 2010
Suzy's galpal Maureen is her go-to when it comes to selecting wine. Her local wine shop is stocked with interesting varietals for every occasion. According to Mo, once Spring has sprung, it's time to bring out some Rosé. Here are some of her favorites...
Mulderbosch Cabernet Sauvignon Rose '09
A lovely, lively, bright and clear pomegranate colour with complex layers of strawberry, cherry, roses and fresh peaches on the nose. The wine has a nice, spicy and slightly peppery taste on the palate and is well balanced with a fresh long aftertaste.
$11.99 btl
Domaine de Rimauresq Petite Rose '08
Rimauresq is one of only a handful of Appellation Côtes de Provence vineyards awarded Cru Classé status in 1955. This mirrors the classification of the great Bordeaux chateaux a hundred years earlier. This charming and sophisticated dry pink comes from a first-class source. It's archetypical Provence rosé, with a very attractive bright flavors of apricots, plums, and strawberries, followed by a creamy, fresh finish.
$14.99 btl
Domaine Massamier La Mignarde Cuvée des Oliviers Rosé '09
A blend of Cinsault, Syrah and Grenache. Fresh strawberry and cactus flower aromas lead to a light, extremely lively palate with strawberry and red cherry flavors presented in a very dry, refreshing style. More intensity of flavor than the color would indicate. Always a favorite at Mo's!
$10.99 btl (available mid-April)
